RX1 - Samples and Reviews (Part II)

That Steve Huff review is spot on. After using the camera for 5 full days,  I agree with everything he said.

Especially the part about the EVF.  I really don't mind the bulk or could care less about paying more for the external EVF.  It just bugs me that I can't just throw it in my bag without the fear of damaging it.  It doesn't have a 'lock' button so it can be easily lost too.  (In fact, someone reported losing there OVF and thumbgrip already)

AND I wouldn't want to snap it on/off everytime because it will probably weaken the connections and make it a loose fit.

If the EVF was built-in (even if that meant making it a bit taller and more expensive) this camera would have been PERFECT.
